Kinda feels like every law professor on Twitter is either (1) on some awesome international vacation, or (2) getting a lot of work done. I'm not doing either of those things but I did get my rather large lawn mowed today, please clap.

I take no pleasure in reporting that after a fourteen-year break, I am once again recording time in six-minute increments. Sarah and I have to do sixty (!) hours of driving together so she can get her license in 2025. No accidents yet, but a long way to go.

A law school just announced "the college of law is looking to fill several tenured/TT positions. ... We are open to candidates in all academic areas." I wonder what would happen if someone said "great, I'm applying to teach legal writing." Actually, I don't have to wonder...
